When I’m putting my niece down for a nap I hold her so tight. I don’t want to lose a single second with her.

I want to tell her that “yes, sometimes life is hard” and Mommy won’t be able to fix all the boo-boo’s but the moments after the hard times are always worth it. The moments when a song goes perfectly with how you are feeling that day or when a boy makes you feel beautiful. It’s all worth it.
